Sweatshirts done!

These got snuck on to my “to do” list at the last minute, but they’re finished at least.  I just have to stop at the post office today after I get the Magster back… it’s at the body shop being fixed and should be done this afternoon, finally… and pick up boxes to mail these in.

I haven’t had time to make one for myself! Maybe after I pick the car up today, I’ll swing by JCPenney’s and see if they have any long sleeved white teeshirts.  I don’t much care for sweatshirts myself, simply because they have crew necks, and I’m a “V” neck girl.

The log cabin is done and I’m hand stitching (gasp!) the binding on it now.  I swear it will take me longer to do that than it did to make the entire quilt.  I’m not posting a picture here because it’s a Christmas gift, but it’s on my Facebook Wall for you facebook users.  I’ll post more pictures after Christmas, it really turned out awesome!

Jim and I only planted a single tree this Thanksgiving, but we did winterize the garden beds, dug up the last ten pounds of potatoes, and it’s supposed to be warm tomorrow so I will plant our garlic.  A little late, but it will be fine.

I have a customer quilt needing to be loaded onto the longarm today, but it might have to wait until tomorrow, I have a feeling the entire day is going to be crazy!

I started marinating more dried fruit in brandy yesterday… my fruitcakes AGAIN did not make it until Christmas, they’re all gone!  Oink, oink oink!

The sweatshirts turned out beautifully! You are such an energetic, gogetter person. Reading your blog always gets my day off to a good start and deeps me smiling (except when something bad has happened in your life.) Great news you will be getting your little car back.

Okay, I'm a little late in this conversation, but they are so cute!! Lorilei designs, right? And where did you find sweatshirts with such a nice neckline?? All the ones I can find are tooooooo high. (And I'm a v-neck girl, too. In may case, trying to look like I have a neck!!)
